A gas occupies a volume of 650.0 mL when the pressure is 3.50 atm. What will the new volume be if the pressure is reduced to 1.6
Gemiola [76]

The new volume will be 1379 mL.

Explanation:

As per Boyle's law, the product of initial volume and initial pressure of any gas molecule is equal to the product of final volume and final pressure of those molecules.

So here the initial volume is 650 ml and the initial pressure is 3.50 atm. As the temperature is said to be constant, then this system will be obeying Boyle's law. So, the final pressure is given as 1.65 atm. As there is a reduction in the pressure, the volume of the gas is tend to get expanded.

P_{1} V_{1} = P_{2} V_{2}

So, (650*10^{-3}*3.50)=(1.65*V_{2})

V_{2} = \frac{650*10^{-3}*3.50}{1.65} = 1379 mL

So, the new volume of the gas on reduction in pressure is 1379 mL.

The Gateway Arch in St. Louis, MO is approximately 630 ft tall. How many U.S. dimes would be in a stack of the same
miskamm [114]

Answer:

142240

Explanation:

We are told in the question:

Height of Gateway Arch in St. Louis, MO = 630ft

We are asked, how many U.S. dimes would be in a stack of the same

height when 1 dime is 1.35 mm thick.

Step 1

Convert height in ft to mm

1 ft = 304.8 mm

630ft =

Cross Multiply

630ft × 304.8mm/1ft

= 192024 mm.

Step 2

To find how many US dimes would be in a stack of the same height

= Total thickness/ Thickness of 1 US dime

= 192024 mm/1.35mm

= 142240

Therefore, the number of dimes that would be in a stack of the same

height is 142240

In an experiment, hydrochloric acid reacted with different volumes of sodium thiosulfate in water. A yellow precipitate was form
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The time taken for the cross mark to disappear decreases steadily down the column.

Explanation:

Now if we look at the data provided, we will discover that the volume of the HCl was held constant while the volume of the thiosulphate was increased steadily and the volume of water decreased steadily.

Recall that a system is more concentrated when it contains less volume of water and more volume of reactants. Hence as the volume of water in the system is being reduced, the concentration of reactants is increased.

It has been established that an increase in the concentration of reactants lead to an increase in the rate of reaction. The disappearance of the cross shows the completion of the reaction between HCl and thiosulphate. The faster or slower the cross disappears, the faster or slower the rate of reaction.

Since increase in concentration of reactants increases the rate of reaction, it is observed that as the volume of the thiosulphate increases (reactant concentration increases) the cross disappears faster (rate of reactant increases). Hence as the volume of thiosulphate increases, it takes a shorter time for the cross to disappear. This implies that the time column in the table (refer to the question) will decrease steadily as the volume of thiosulphate increases.

1. 7.000 mmhg = ______ KPa?<br> 2. 10.00 kPa = ________atm?<br> 3. 15.00 kPa______mmHg?
Minchanka [31]
1 kPa = 7.5 mmHg so 7.0 mmHg / 7.5 mmHg x 1 kPa = .93 kPa

101.3 kPa = 1 atm so 10 kPa / 101.3 kPa x 1 atm = .0987 atm

1 kPa = 7.5 mmHg so 15 kPa x 7.5 mmHg / 1 kPa = 112.5 mmHg
